Excellent addition to farming simulator would love it if someone had attachments for it, there are good posts on Reddit, that show people who made custom surrounds that have the decals for what each button automatically maps to on farming simulator
Note: only tried it on FS22
So this was bought mainly for ETS 2 and works ok to an extent for that, problem is that trying to remember everything you have mapped is quite difficult then some of the switches look like rocker switches but theyre not. The Joystick is novel as it has 2 different options at the touch of a button on the top of it, but feels very flimsy like it would break if you pulled on it to hard. I’ve not managed to use it on Farm Sim yet as i can’t figure out how to use my Wheel and this box in conjunction with each other same goes for Snow Runner as it’s not quite obvious how its done. Also i’d love to use the Joystick as a Brake Bias adjuster in ACC but ACC only recognises the buttons and not the joystick.
All in all its quite expensive for a plastic box with some buttons on it….
Works fine with farming simulator and euro truck sim in conjuction with the logitech G920 steering wheel and pedals on PC
I use this for euro truck and American truck sim . Works a treat. Would be nice to have different mounting options but the one provided works.
This is magic. Although I’ve not yet used it for the Farming Sims I have yet (2), I am using it for Euro Truck Simulator 2 & American Truck Simulator. Allocating the controls for these games, to the buttons on this panel, I now don’t need to have them on the Steering Wheel, or the Keyboard, meaning that I am less likely to press the wrong button for the control I want/need. All round, a very useful controller, well worth the money, but it could be cheaper to buy (I bought mine only because it was on special, and came down to a price I could afford).
Works great With PS5 however you will need a USB hub to make it work.
Makes farming so much more immersive!!
Like the title says this is a great addition if you play simulation games like farm SIM, ETS2, ATS even ED.
The build quality it solid and the stick with twist axis has a great tactile feel to it, also the desk clamp holds the unit securely to my desk.
This is worth every penny, it is amazing!! I use it for my Euro Truck Simulator 2 on Steam as a control panel for various switches and it works great. It has 27 switch capabilities plus a switched joystick. A truly amazing piece of kit. Very happy
i was skeptical about this, its not a cheap bit of kit.
it takes some getting used to when you have played your time with just keys and a mouse but boy is it worth it, so many buttons and features, playing farm sim with this is a whole different game for me. worth every penny.
Very pleased, quality is on point, I use it for many games, not just farming sim, only thing that’s a bit disappointing is the fake rocker switches. Other than that, it’s bang o
Do not own a copy of Farming Simulator myself, so cannot comment in regards to that game and this device.
I purchased this from another website and can confirm my 4 star rating was only due to the extremely plasticky feel of the product, but all in all it works well for most games. It’s very easy to set up, all the buttons and the joystick on the Side Panel work perfectly fine and do the job, the buttons are even labelled with the numbers which is useful considering there are many. The joystick has 2 axis modes that you can switch between, which is surprisingly useful.
And believe it or not, you can even use this as a flight joystick, it’s not meant for it, but it does work if you don’t have a separate HOTAS. I’ve used this on ETS 2, Elite Dangerous and Star Citizen and all work perfectly fine and is very playable. One thing I will suggest is to NOT buy the full set, if you’re interested in this, just buy the Side Panel, don’t buy the steering wheel as that has many many issues, if you want a good steering wheel any of the Logitech Steering wheels will do just fine.
Just keep in mind that you best be ready to sacrifice multiple USB ports when using multiple devices (like in ETS 2 – steering wheel +side panel + mouse + keyboard etc. ), joysticks and controllers should always be inserted into the main USB hubs on the PC and not on external USB hubs as they might not work as intended.
All in all, a good purchase if you’re looking for some extra buttons/joystick features to add to your sim experience!
An excellent side panel for use with PC or ps4 seems well built. A little expensive but overall I’m pleased with it. Cant comment on tech support as never had to resort to sing logitech tech suppo
Saw a streamer using one of these and decided to get one myself, it is really useful for simulation games and is easy to get used to if you have a desk big enough for it as well as your wheel
If you are into simulation games, this is a great tool to have. It works on many simulation games. Is great for ETS 2, ATS and Farm Sim as well as racing Sims
I have had this product for almost exactly 3 months now. I have the newer logitech version. I have put about 300 hours into farming simulator with this thing and about 100 hours of euro truck sim. The thing has held up amazing. Super sturdy, never missed a beat. Nice strong clamp to secure onto the table.
Using on Eurotruck Simulator 2. Brilliant, a game changer. Key pressure needs to be very precise, but you get used to it. Very easy to set up and assign buttons. The joy stick, which I use for looking left, right, forward and external views, is very good. I can’t imagine playing without it. Highly recommend it.
Brilliant! Buttons feel a little plasticky but work well, joystick very good. Nice solid clamp to desk. Set up most buttons itself when used with FS19 leaving plenty more to be assigned.
There are ONLY buttons on this even low some of them look like rocker switch!
well worth the money
The product on Amazon is shown in Logitech packaging however I received the older Saitek boxed model.
I use this mainly with Euro Truck & American Truck Simulator in conjunction with a Thrustmaster steering wheel & pedals. Both games offer easy configuration of all the buttons & joystick.
I haven’t got it to work with Farm Simulator 2015 yet, but I’ve not really played this much so I don’t know if there’s a trick to getting the game to set up the stated default control configuration.
Overall the unit seems very sturdy in construction and the buttons all have a nice click when pushed.
The joystick has a dual action which is toggled by the red button on the top of the stick. (X/Y axis or X/Y rotation)
It certainly a lot quicker to find a desire function compared to using the computer keyboard.
There are a few things that were a little disappointing however, firstly the joystick doesn’t have the smooth movement I expected. It feels as through its slightly catching on something when pushed to the right. Despite this it works in game as expected.
The four square keys look like on/off switches but they are actually just push buttons like the rest.
More disappointing is the speed/cruise control wheel. On my unit the push down click action on the wheel is very hit or miss and often the wheel sticks in the down position instead of popping back up. Also turning the wheel doesn’t give a particularly fine adjustment. It all feels a bit hit or miss and is definitely the weakest feature.
The unit can be used with any game that allows keys/controls to be mapped, so it would also be useful for other games such as flight & train simulators, or even racing simulators such Assetto Corsa, Project Cars etc.
There’s a good length of cable and a large padded screw clamp which allows fixing to a desk up to thickness of around 40mm.
No drivers are supplied so it’s just plug and play.
I’ve heard the build quality on the Logitech branded units is supposed to be better, so not entirely happy that I received the older Saitek version given the price and Amazon product description.
Overall it works well and does more or less what I wanted.
the build quality is better now that Logitech has taken over the company, and it feels solid.
but I am not fully convinced about the buttons being up to the job, only time will tell.
The joystick is on the small side and is too stiff for my liking.
They really should lower the price a bit, you’re paying a lot of money for what it does.
